Steeda UD pulley causing fuse to blow?

I took my car to my uncles shop to try and fix my A/C issue (not blowing cold air) and he said when they ran all the test the result was the compressor was being spun so fast its blowing a fuse around 3k rpm. Could this be from the UD pulleys? I know plenty of people run these pulleys without that issue so I don't get it. I don't want to have to take these pulleys off to run my A/C. Any ideas on why i'm blowing this fuse. I don't know exactly what fuse it is but it has to do with the compressor for the A/C. Thanks

Correct me if I am wrong but I always thought a UD pulley ran the accessories slower not faster.

I am however unsure why your AC compressor would be blowing fuses sorry I can't help with that.

I'm pretty sure it's not the pulleys but i'm at work and my buddy is taking the stock pulleys over to the shop for a pulley swap so well see if the stockers change anything. If not well go from there..

You are absolutely correct...The UDP's slow down all of the accessories! That ani't the problem.
